2.0 SUMMARY

 Red Deer County Land Use Bylaw 2006/6, Section 101.3 indicates that a Campground Minor is a discretionary use within the Agricultural District (AG).  The Land Use Bylaw definition of a Campground Minor, means a development of planned campsites for seasonal short term use of recreational vehicles, campers, tent trailers, tents and similar recreational vehicles where there are 20 defined camping sites or less within the development area of the land and is not used as year round storage or accommodation for residential use. A campground minor may include a potable water supply or sewage disposal facilities.  Land Use Bylaw 2006/6, Section 61.3(a) indicates that the minimum parcel size for a Campground Minor shall be an unsubdivided quarter section.  The Applicant is proposing a 20 unit Campground Minor on the remainder of a subdivided quarter section. The Applicant is requesting a Land Use Bylaw, Section 61.3(a) relaxation.  Land Use Bylaw 2006/6, Section 61.3(c) indicates that a Campground Minor in the Agricultural District is considered a secondary use to the principal dwelling and as such can only occur on parcels that include an existing single detached dwelling.  The proposed site for the Campground Minor, contains an accessory building and does not contain a dwelling unit. The Applicant (land owner) has indicated that she does not live on the property and therefore is requesting a relaxation of the Land Use Bylaw. Section 61.3(c).  The proposed Campground Minor is located approximately 11 km (7 miles) west of the Hamlet of Dickson and will be accessed from Range Road 42.  Surrounding lands are zoned Agricultural District (AG) and used for agricultural purposes.  The property is not located within an Intermunicipal Development Plan or an Area Structure Plan.  The proposed Campground Minor is located within the Environmentally Significant Area.
